 Law Question... Trying to finish up DUI case

Alright so 2 years ago I have a shitty public defender and ending up taking a plea deal for 110 days county, with 45 days suspended if I do alcohol treatment classes. I have already done the 65 days but still have another 45 hanging over my head. I would much rather NOT go to jail, but I guess if I go and get work release then it wont be soooo bad.
Question, do you think it would be worthwhile to contact my public defender on the case or even the prosecutor and see if there is any alternative to the alcohol treatment classes? I dont have the 800$ some bucks to do the classes so that is what is keeping me from having this case wrapped up. I would think the state prosecutor might be willing to work with me if I approach them and try to handle it. The judge is alright but he is bound by the plea deal I signed, so he cant really do anything with the extra 45 days right now. I wonder if I can file a motion to have the case dismissed now.....

id say no... they are gonna tell you to get a job and finish the classes. that or turn yourself in for time in jail.

Cant get a job when I have a warrant out for this case.
That's the whole problem.
If I could "just get a job," I would happily do that and start taking care of these classes. Just about every job around me does background checks. And the fast food places arent currently hiring.
